- Beal should come off the bench in his rookie year until he proves he can be a legit scorer, if he can, we can package wither DeRozan or J.Johnson in the midseason for a legit veteran 3

- I doubt Valanciunas will be here next year since his contract runs three years with last year option, so most likely he will be here when 2013-14 season comes along. With A.Gray gone, i don't see Magloire being a starter but since he decided to resigns with the Raps, i see R.Lopez as our starting C unless R.Sacre proves he can start at this league, we can also go with a combination with Bargs and Amir at C when situation are dire.

- Dragic is a poor man Steve Nash but definitely a younger replacement for Calderon. Waiters is a interesting prospect although i would much prefer Marshall or D.Lilliard if they are still on board.

- Sixth Man: Jerryd Bayless, he must prove to this league that he can bring 10+ ppts, 3asts by coming off the bench for us next year. Chase Budlinger, he's better than Jason Kapono, at least he tries for the slam dunk contest.

Valanciunas will be here next season.
I would rather have Calderon starting next season than Dragic.

It's way too early to start doing these grandiose type roster overhauling strategies. I suggest waiting until the draft lottery, at the very least, so at least then the conversation can begin with a somewhat realistic discussion about likely draft targets. The player/position drafted could very well be the first domino to fall, so to speak, as far as determing the direction signings/trades will take this offseason. (ie: the offseason will look much different if the Raptors win the lottery and draft A.Davis VS drafting MKG/Beal/Barnes at the wing VS drafting Marshall/Lillard at the point VS drafting any second-tier prospect at the end of or out of the lottery)

I'm not sure about the Alabi trade. Didn't Phil Jackson have his hip replaced? How long is the recovery time? And honestly, how long can Phil Jackson continue to play? He makes Steve Nash look like an infant.

I think that even BC did better decisions during his Raptors career than most tenforthewin mentioned here... After that changes we would be lottery team for at least 5 more years, I wouldn't call that team as improved team.

Honestly like this team very much. Next year find a way to use extra PF to sign a PG, use Calderon to sign a good 6th man, and we have ourselves a young and improving potential contender in my opinion.

your first mistake is assuming mkg drops to 5th. I haven't seen a single mock draft where he drops below 3rd.
